Healthy Lunch Box Snacks for Kids

It’s that time of year when we are busy getting the kids ready to go back to school. Planning what goes into your children’s lunch box and what they are eating at school is vital for optimal learning. Children that eat healthy foods throughout the day are have stable energy levels, positive moods and a high motivation to learn. On the other hand, a child who snacks on highly processed and nutrient-poor foods will find learning and concentrating during class a difficult task. With the huge variety of snack foods on the supermarket shelves in their bright coloured and enticing packaging, finding the right snacks for your child can be challenging. Here is a list of my top snack for kids that are full of nutrients and taste good too!

Apple and cinnamon wedges (slice apple into wedges, sprinkle with cinnamon and bake in the oven with a little coconut oil)

Raspberries filled with Greek yoghurt

Celery sticks filled with peanut butter and topped with raisins
